Teodor of Vršac was a Serbian Orthodox bishop who led the Banat Uprising against Ottoman rule in 1594. During the Long War, he collaborated with Sigismund Báthory, Sava Ban, and Velja Mironić to organize a revolt that liberated several villages, including Vršac. To inspire his fighters, the rebels utilized icons of Saint Sava as battle flags. Following the uprising, Teodor was captured by Sinan Pasha, who ordered him to be flayed and burned alive.
